Kotlin 1.4 Online Event - Day 1 Recap

This video is a recap of Day 1 KMM announcements and development from the Kotlin 1.4 event. This video is intended for engineering managers interested in adopting KMM for their teams.

At Touchlab we specialize in Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile (KMM). Kotlin 1.4 released with a focus on quality and performance.

In support of the release, the Kotlin team at JetBrains is producing a Kotlin 1.4 online event: https://kotlinlang.org/lp/event-14/. They describe it as follows,

We want to make sure that you have a great experience using Kotlin 1.4, and we want you to have a good idea of where we are taking the language next. This is why we are happy to invite all of you to our Kotlin 1.4 Online Event!

It consists of four days packed with knowledge about Kotlin and the future of the language and its ecosystem. We’ll discuss the new changes and improvements we made with Kotlin 1.4, and we’ll share our future plans for the language. Our Kotlin team members will answer your questions in daily Q&A sessions.

Submit your questions in advance by tweeting them with the #kotlin14ask hashtag, or using the event question form. The Kotlin 1.4 Online Event will be streamed on October 12–15, and you can register for free.
